Description by Nele
I made a total of six different cupboards, this is it most clearly visible on my working drawings. The 'big' wall cabinet for the kitchen actually consists of four separate cabinets, to make the project a little more manageable. In addition to this large cupboard, I made two similar low cupboards for our living room, in two different sizes.
How I made this project
I first glued the panels together with wood glue (Griffon ES30 quick drying, dried transparent in 3 minutes) and secured them with corner clamps (I had only four available, but six or even eight would have been better). Then I simply drilled holes and secured them with a universal screw (with pozy/Z2 head, 4x60). On the corners I used 3 screws each over the entire depth of the cabinets, for the middle shelves only 2 because of the thickness of the sheet material (1.8cm) this is sufficiently sturdy.
Dimensions of my DIY project
There are several parts, below are the dimensions of each part:
- Stove cabinet: 165x35x40 cm
- Seat cabinet: 175x35x30 cm
